WRIGHT: OBAMA TRIED TO BRIBE ME TO KEEP QUIET IN 2008

Big Government

According to Edward Klein in today’s New York Post, then-Senator Barack Obama’s political campaign tried, through back channels, to bribe Rev. Jeremiah Wright not to speak during the 2008 election cycle. The price: $150,000.

According to Wright, “one of Barack’s closest friends” directed an offer to Wright through a member of Wright’s church. Obama also asked to meet with Wright “in secret, in a secure place.” They met one-on-one. Here’s what happened at the meeting, according to Wright:

“Barack said, ‘I’m sorry you don’t see it the way I do. Do you know what your problem is?’ And I said, ‘No, what’s my problem?’ And he said, ‘You have to tell the truth.’ I said, ‘That’s a good problem to have. That’s a good problem for all preachers to have. That’s why I could never be a politician.’

    Reforming an Obama supporter is like trying to pick up a turd by its clean end.

    In a few years, there’s going to be a big room full of dead people and empty cups of flavor aid laying around on the ground. Wright is just inches away from Jim Jones’ing his brain dead flock to where ever the hell they think they’re going.

    On the Left we have a “halfrican american” commie and the most cracker assded looking mostly-white-rican american posing for some useless photo opp.

    Why is the crackrican american so pissed at white folks…he’s whiter than Goerge Zimmerman.

    This should set him on fire.

    “Morrissey points out that this makes Obama out to be a liar when he said he didn’t listen to Wright’s sermons for 20 years. He knew full well the kind of poison Wright had been spewing all those years. Chillingly, it also shows Obama agrees with his pastor “telling the truth” about America.

    In case you haven’t noticed, the press is ignoring both this story and the book. It will be interesting to see how the campaign responds and whether or not Wright confirms the allegation.”
